SUCCESS WITH SUPIMA: Robin Tomas on ABS-CBN
By Greg Wang
MANILA—For a long time, his mother, renowned Filipina comedian Tessie Tomas, was the famous one.
But that may be changing soon.
Since becoming a finalist and then a winner in Supima’s most recent Design Competition, Robin Tomas’s career has been taking off.
Most recently, he was the subject of a story on ABS-CBN:
“The biggest thing that I’ve learned from my mom is the value of hard work and the value of humility,” he said
His hard work is paying off. His award-winning design for SUPIMA Cotton is now in production in Canada and will be sold in more than 30 Bloomingdale stores nationwide this fall.
The 33-year-old Tomas won the best reinvention of the men’s t-shirt design award at the SUPIMA competition early this year. SUPIMA is a promotional organization of American pima cotton growers.
